Fantastic stay, the property is super clean and lovely to stay at. Walking distance to the beach and terrific communication from the owners a wonderful little place to stay, highly recommend it.
Wonderful get away spot. Chris’s Shack is delightful. Excellently appointed. The hosts are lovely and communication was excellent. Maloneys Beach is a slice of heaven.
Lovely, brand new granny flat. Equipped well in the kitchen & laundry area. Short walk to the beach. Would love to return and explore the area more.Hosts were very accommodating and flexible which was much appreciated!
We loved our stay! Kangaroos galore, quiet sleepy beach suburb and, Nomiki - our host, made it very homey. Super clean. Was a great base, for a couple of days, to go out and explore locally and the surrounding towns. Hidden bushwalks which we found on our way to the beach. Would highly recommend it.
Great little place everything you need one road back from the beach. Clean neat and comfy.
Would have been nice to stay a little longer and enjoy the beach being nearly at your doorstep.
Thanks for your hospitality - Everything just as advertised. little cramped if you had lots of people in the living area but that didn't concern us at all.
Excellent place if you had little kids.
Beautiful granny flat with a beautiful host!! We literally parked the car and didn’t use it again until we left. The beach, hiking trails and cafe are all literally around the corner. Next time we will bring the fishing rods, paddle board and boogie boards as well as the bikes. Highly recommended!!
